Haitian Slip-n-Slide!

So, one night at St. Joe's it was raining really hard & rained all in the theater room! Boys will be boys, & Rob & a few other guys started swinging Caleb & Harry across the flooded floor! We had our mission group meeting in that room a few minutes afterword & i just remember praying in toe-covering water! Ahh, good times, good Haiti Memories!

We Love Head Wear!

Bethany

This is the only kid i saw the time i went to Haiti a long time ago! i don't think she remembered me but i remembered her! How can't you?

Bethany was one of the very first kids at the "O". And yet with some confusion, she is still there! But she is very loved there! (just Ask You-you!) :)

Anyway. She is just too sweet! Some times i just like to watch her! i like to stand there and gaze at her! Her smile brightens my day! One day when i was working at the medical clinic she came & sat with me. She said "Bonjou" "Hello" to all of the patients. After a while i just had to laugh out loud! Bethany, Bethany was the one being so social! i was actually pretty proud! This isn't the Bethany i remembered! But we both have changed a lot!

And isn't she just so beautiful? I mean really beautiful! I never told i was going to take picture or told her to pose! I didn't want her to! She always looked perfect!I would look at her & pull out the camera fast & snap a picture! But i was glad she saw the camera because her smile brings the picture to life!

I love her so much! Please, seriously pray for Bethany! She deserves it, and you know it! ;)

I Can Only Imagine

(turn on your speakers if possible)

Mia, Hope, & Mr. Noah!

Lively, Mia. I miss her voice, you know. The one that just makes you smile & want to hug her to death?! I can't wait to hear her voice again! Remember when you first get to the "O" and all the kids come running to you & want you to hold them whether they have met you or not yet??? Well, Mia was the kid who ran to me! "Hello, my name is, Mia Grace Cundiff! What is your name?" "Hey Mia, my name is Elisabeth" "Lesabet?" "Hehe, Wi!" Then she did her big giggle & jumped into my arms! (a little sooner & faster than i expected!) But i wanted to tell her that i already knew her & i knew who her family was! And that i loved her for a long time now! But i thought that might get confusing for her! And she is such an awesome big sister! She also lead me up to the nursery & she would always go & hold Isaiah! Why Isaiah, i don't know! She loves Isaiah! It was so sweet! And Isaiah loves her, too! :) When her family came, though, she said she didn't love me anymore! :( But i wasn't mad or anything because i knew she was just saying that because her family was there. But the day i left she said she loved me & gave me a hug!

Humble, Hope. I love her, but i bet you already knew that! ;) For a sister to Mia i don't think that they are much alike. Hope is quiet... most of the time. And Mia is so energetic & at times just smack-down-crazy! :) Hope is a little girl with a big smile & a big laugh... if she wants to let it out! But i love them all the same!

Sweet, Noah. He is one of the sweetest boys at the "O". He is going to be a good brother to Mia & Hope! He loves them too! I mean all the kids kinda love on each other but they are so suttle about it. And Noah doesn't announce it to the world either but, he just is so SWEET to his sisters. Sensitive. Sweet Noah is sensitive! I love him, i really love him. He gave me hugs & kisses without shame. I love ya, Noah!
